I am using Cent OS 6.4 and it is in a official lab.

ping google.comping google.com gives the below output and hangs:

[root@LAB1 ~]# ping google.com  
PING google.com (74.125.236.195) 56(84) bytes of data.

ping 8.8.8.8ping 8.8.8.8 also yields the same result. I am able to access internet from browser(Mozilla). Is there a problem with the network settings or configuration?

Below is the output from traceroute - n 8.8.8.8

The main reason for me to try the above ping is to resolve an yum update command that fails to resolve the mirror sites...
